### 5/5 — Works on my old tablet

*2026-07-04, version 1.1.3*

If you have and 12 iOS and no games are campatiple with your iPad we’ll your in luck this amazing game let’s you play this endless thriller without having a new phone or tablet. My tablet was old and I had no games to play until I found this game it is soooooooooo fun so try it right now

### 5/5 — Been on this for years.

*2024-12-16, version 1.1.3*

Just good. Easy to get into, challenging to finish.

### 5/5 — Love at first download

*2020-01-14, version 1.1.3*

I’ve installed this game on every iPhone I’ve had. It’s great for when you just want to forget about things for awhile. The graphics are reminiscent of the old Atari games (but better). I just love everything about this game. Thanks to whoever thought it up and developed it. 👍👍👍

### 4/5 — 2019

*2019-07-01, version 1.1.3*

Still playable 
Just for the score

### 4/5 — Great

*2018-12-02, version 1.1.3*

I like all of the guns but the best one is the fire gun

### 4/5 — Good simple fun

*2018-12-01, version 1.1.3*

I enjoy playing this game.  I like the premise, the weapon effects and the action.

The games are too short though because I get killed so soon.  Also, it would be a lot more fun if we got to see an assortment of different robot characters.

### 3/5 — Decent but very minimal

*2017-08-22, version 1.1.3*

It's an ok infinite runner but there's very little challenge and once you have played the game for 5 minutes you have seen everything it has to offer. The only increase in difficulty is that the enemies get slightly more frequent, and you will eventually make a mistake. Probably due to boredom. 3 stars because this game has no flaws (it functions as designed) except that it's more of a demo than a full game.

### 5/5 — Love. It.

*2017-05-16, version 1.1.3*

Ran out of cool space games and stumbled on this one. Love it!!

### 5/5 — FANTASTIC but lil outdated

*2017-05-15, version 1.1.3*

I have had this game for two years now and unfortunately they don't give regular updates to include new features! I would recommend to my friends and enjoy it more if you could update it and add new creative, fun ideas 

Thanks

### 5/5 — Runaway free Yuki ootomo

*2017-04-27, version 1.1.3*

Did this game get copied from run away free by yuki ootomo? ???? ??????????
